Aggressive Offsets

What are the most aggressive offsets and width we can run on our 5th gens..

I want to be flush as possible where a stretched tire would slide right under the fenders..

something either staggerd or not, I just don't want to use a spacer.

something 8.5, 9.0, 9.5, 10.... for the fronts/rears whats the offsets?

in for this too... from what i remember a X10 wheel is as flush as you get, but the offest of wheel is what gets me... i wanted to do a 19x8 and 19x10 in the rear with a 245/35/19 in the rear... however im not that good at this... maybe the wheels section would give you the best answers

Honestly, I think spacers would be your best bet. They come in increments of 5 millimeters from 5mm to 25mm on Ebay with the 25mm offset working the best with stock rims, but I'm sure it would be different with whatever rims you end up with.

EDIT: Found these.

22mm Spacers

18''... Width, I'm not to picky.. Price and fitment is more important at this point.

looks like the front for a 9 could be a +25 while the rear could be like a +20 or something

btw with your theory of thinking it would be reverse...+25 offset in teh rear w/ a +20 offset in teh front.

but mine are not staggered

+30 offset and 9" wheels all the way around

excuse me... I was saying it looks like it would be MORE flush with the offsets I said above. You are not flush in the rear. Not aggressive. Not what I want.

I am looking at buying:
Bronze Rota P45R's 18x9.5 +30 5x114.3
Kumho ASX 235/40/18

I just am not sure how far in the front they will poke and if the back will be super flush. I would, I guess, add a small spacer in the front to make it poke the same. I really like these:

the G35 wheels are 18x8 w/ a 30 offset as well..heres a pic of how they looked

those tires were teh 245/40/18s...so with what you are interested in...you can imagine with another inch and a half of rim poking out the wheel well..it'd look dope

btw i heart the p45s as well, i would love to have a set

Yeah I think those p45s are as aggressive as I can get without poking out ridiculous or running some kind of crazy front camber... Id love to see how 18x9.5 +30 would look on a maxima
